Has anyone made the stdargs stuff work in g++ 1.36.2, on a decstation 3100?
My attempts are simply not putting the arguments on the stack, so bad
data is being pulled off in the called function.  I have tried using
g++-include/stdargs.h, and various hacks of other attempts at stdarg.h
(from cfront, the native compiler, etc.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdarg.h>

void print(const char *fmt ...)
{
    va_list ap;
    va_start(ap, fmt);

    fprintf(stderr, "print test: ");
    vfprintf(stderr, fmt, ap);

    va_end(ap);
}

main()
{
    print("This is a test of three numbers %d 0x%x %f\n", 10, 0x123, 0.123);
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I get:

print test: This is a test of three numbers 0 0x10001330 0.123000

I wanted:

print test: This is a test of three numbers 0 0x123 0.123000.
